I second the "wrong" vote... the original Mac keyboards only came with
the wonky phone cord connection -- though I wonder if there was ever an
ADB adaptor for them (???) -- and I do believe the Lisa and XL keyboards
were of the same persuasion... There are some pretty clunky ADB
keyboards out there, so you may be thinking of one of them. (I just dug
one out that is roughly the same size/shape as the non-ADB ones, but is
flatter on the top with no bevel on the edge... also has big clunky
keys)

Now that I've opined, please feel free to prove me wrong ;-)
